    Go out, bring a book and have a decadent coffee some place that you can read in peace and surreptitiously people watch. That was always my treat to myself. Especially watching other mothers struggling and frustrated while I could just sit and relax. :D

    I am delighted it went so well savour the day and it will give you something to remember when you have a bad one! Why not get your hair and nails done or go for a beauty treatment, or go for a swim and sauna, I know if it was me I would do nothing except relax and read a good book. Whatever you decide enjoy!

    You know what I would do..... Nothing.... Well Id like to do nothing but then Id prob end up decorating a room or catching up on some work or something! I have been getting 3 hours to myself on weekdays every second week and all I do is clean up or turn the laptop on and do some work, honestly I havent taken me time at all and I think when you are a mammy it is hard to do that.

    Why not see if you can get your hair and makeup done for this dinner date if you feel like you want to go out and do something!

    Definitely a bit of pampering/ self- pampering! It's always the last thing on my list of priorities, but feel so nice after! :o

    It's so nice out as well- an hour or two sitting outside with a book or magazine, or just going for a walk to clear the cobwebs, to top up the vitamin D! :rolleyes:

    Enjoy dinner later! :D

    get your hair done!
    I can never get mine done cause I can't bring the kids or go to the cinema.
    Watch tv,drink hot tea (mine always ends up going cold!)
